I don't see how anyone can support this from a moral perspective.
Firstly, if we are not producing enough "talented" people, then we should be investing on producing more "talented" people rather than bringing them from overseas. If companies can just bring in foreigners to undercut american workers then what incentive is there for companies and local/state/federal governments to invest in american workers/people.
Secondly, if we are stealing "talented" people from other countries, how fair is it to these countries that need these people to develop. Isn't it amoral for a wealthy nation to steal resources from a poor nation just so that some billionaire can get cheaper workers and/or suppress wages? And if poor countries realize that their "talented" people are going to be taken by wealthy nations, then what incentive is there for these countries to invest in and develop their own people?
If politicians supports this, then I propose we also open up these elected positions to foreigners. Let foreigners run for the senate, house and presidency. Lets see how they like it. Let them also bid for the wages as well. Don't see a downside from where I'm standing as it can't get any worse than the current political class we have.
